What worked? Adding another Good Belly or letting it sit for 18 hours? I've had one going for about 4 days and it's also stuck at about 3.8 pH.

Anyone in the area heading up to RR on Friday? I'm probably going to try and have lunch there at 11am. I guess this year they aren't filling growlers and are only serving 10 oz. "half pints." Does anyone know where I can get a growler of this filled?

I've been out of the brewing game for a while, and was wondering what happens after this is kegged. I am thinking about doing this as my first all-grain (good idea?). Anyway, a lot of these recipes seem to get kegged fairly soon. When does aging occur? Is it kegged and hooked up to CO2 at room...

Thanks, I figured I'm about done with this one. A higher FG is just going to be a sweeter tasting beer, right?

I understand that. I have never tasted the beer before it's completion, so today worried me a bit. The sample was really sweet tasting and not very hoppy like a pale ale should be.

My hydrometer is supposed to be at 60*F so that would affect it even more so correct? Am I right in assuming that if I take a reading at a higher temp, then the true OG should be higher than what I'm reading?

I did not top off to 5 gallons, but I'm also not absolutely positive it's significantly less. Also, the integrity of my OG measurement may be off as well. I'm just looking for advice on how to proceed. Should I just see if the FG changes tomorrow, and if not, bottle it?

Hey guys, I just brewed my first batch in about 2 years and I have admittedly gone back to the noob stage. I brewed Ed Wort's Haus Pale Ale, and it was my first time using my new turkey fryer. Previously, I had never really used the hydrometer, but instead just waited extra time before...

Has anyone tried St. Peter's Cream Stout? I really want to brew this, so I went and got some St. Peter's (since I'm not well versed in cream stouts). I am not really digging the St. Peter's so I was wondering how the two compare.

From what I've seen, $80 shipped is a steal. You shouldn't have any problems getting rid of this. Please let us know if the pick up falls through.

Okay so I guess that's standard price for this recipe (if doing extract). Thanks!

For those doing five gallon extract batches, where are you buying your ingredients? At Austinhomebrew, everything comes out to about $55. Is it cheaper elsewhere?

Maybe he doesn't want to taste anything for a week after drinking this one.

That's kind of what I was getting at. Not questioning your judgment at all, just confused like the OP.

Pretty good price. A 3 hour round trip for me so I'll pass. Maybe someone on here is closer? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/for/2608805998.html

This is an assumption, correct? I mean, why do you suggest that he had the 0.75 oz. citra at the start? Why does it say 20 minutes? I'm not saying that I disagree with your logic, but is this recipe not strangely written?

The last sentence is the all-grain mash instructions, so unless you have a MLT/other all-grain equipment, I don't think this recipe will work for you.

I could be wrong, but with that grain bill, I don't think the easy partial mash would be sufficient. This looks like an all-grain recipe. As far as the hops are concerned, the time is how long they should be boiled for. For instance, 20 minutes means that they should be added when there are...

I found one, so mods can either delete or close this if necessary.
